As a pre-dental student at U of R, I'm absolutely obsessed with working with my hands in 3D. I'm super passionate about crocheting, especially dolls and plushes! See @john.m.scharf on instagram for pictures of my work; dm me for commissions or about any of my projects you liked.

What Inspired You to Make This?

I love working with my hands, and in 3D especially. All of my designs are inspired by my own character designs or characters from games/shows. I've been crocheting since quarantine began, and refined my skills significantly since.
